memcgroup: fix check for thread being a group leader in memcgroup
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The check t->pid == t->pid is not the blessed way to check whether a task is a
group leader.

This is not about the code beautifulness only, but about pid namespaces fixes
- both the tgid and the pid fields on the task_struct are (slowly :( )
becoming deprecated.

Besides, the thread_group_leader() macro makes only one dereference :)
